Was the transition from WoL to HotS like this? Mass retirements and dark future about WCS? I don't think people are retiring because of lotv. I think it's mostly because of the way scene is developing well, lotv is a good point to retire though. new game, you would have to repractice a lot etc.#
really sad about the news, MMA was one of the biggest names in sc2 he will be missed, good luck on his future endeavours!

Blizzard made the money and has no reason to keep SC II alive on their own.
But seriously, MMA is one of the oldest progamers in the scene. I am happy that he can celebrate at HSC with his foreign fans and foreign friends a last time and then start the next episdoe of his life.

I think it's mostly because of the way scene is developing I thought it was known already that MMA was retiring at the end of this year for a while. Am I thinking of someone else? Me too, but we might have been thinking of Bomber.

Stupid fuc*ing region lock at all those IEM and DH tournaments. Now the wheel is being turned to watching Korean events only ...

Expected this due to his age and how many times he has already said he will retire soonish. Still sad of course but now is probably the best time to do it instead of starting to practice a whole new game.
I wish him the best in everything else he does in his life, he was and will remain as probably my favorite player ever <3

No actually. Also Polt, TaeJa and Bomber are kind of in the similar position
Bomber might have already retired idk

No you are right. He was already thinking about it last year, but the he reached the BlizzCon final and decided to play for another year. It just wasn't confirmed until now and hope dies last I guess.

Was the transition from WoL to HotS like this? Mass retirements and dark future about WCS? Honestly, I thought it was way worse several years back. This has been a relative small amount of off season retirements, but really big names because of MMA and Flash.
OT: MMA was one of my favorite Terrans and he will truly be missed. MMA vs DRG forever!!!

At least he'll be exempted from training camp, cause he once served it for 5 weeks in the sergeant camp

I will miss you MMA. GLHF MMA/ForGG/Polt/Bomber/Curious all announced their retirements earlier this year...
